It's evening in the forest and Little Owl wakes up from his day-long sleep to watch his friends enjoying the night. Hedgehog sniffs for mushrooms, Skunk nibbles at berries, Frog croaks, and Cricket sings. A full moon rises and Little Owl can't understand why anyone would want to miss it. Could the daytime be nearly as wonderful? Mama Owl begins to describe it to him, but as the sun comes up, Little Owl falls fast asleep.

Putting a twist on the bedtime book, Little Owl's Night is sure to comfort any child with a curiosity about the night.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Praise for LITTLE OWL’S NIGHT by Divya Srinivasan:

"This debut picture book gets it all just right. The story, while familiar, is executed deftly and with heart, and the crisp graphic elements of the artwork juxtapose well against the pretty prose." --Booklist, starred review
 
"The story's chief virtue is its graceful, balletic prose... It's a provocative inversion of the classic bedtime story, and a solid first outing. Srinivasan's message is that night is a delightful place, and that's useful knowledge for small children." -- Publisher's Weekly 

"A graceful bedtime story celebrates the beauty found in night... Hold on to Little Owl's tail feathers and soar." -- Kirkus Reviews

"This exceptional first book by Srinivasan, a talented illustrator... follows Little Owl during his nighttime explorations... this bedtime tale may even convert children who are afraid of the dark into adventuresome night owls" --New York Times Book Review

"This is the most visually and verbally gorgeous picture book of the year... Simple, dazzling - and simply dazzling." --The Boston Globe

Truly awesome book for role play

Truly awesome book for role play
Truly awesome book for role play.I’ve created my 3 and 2 year old daughters a classroom at our house. We’re currently doing a Blossom&Root Early Learning Vol.1. Each week, we have a book set out on top of our Montessori shelves. For this week, this book is the book of the week. I have dressed up both my daughter in an explorer outfit with accessories for an animal hunt; binocular, compass, etc as seen on the top portion of the shelves. Within the book, it mentions possums, hedgehogs, ants, raccoons, beavers, moths, bear, fox, frog, bats, and a few more. It also mentions different sounds. This is cool because the kids’ imagination to do a role play in relation to this book has no limit as the content is very much open ended for little thinkers. My daughters enjoyed this book very very much. Certainly a must buy!

My son adored this book so much that we still have his original board book and he is almost 10. We give it to every new little person that is on the way into this world - in fact, I popped on here to grab it for a teacher about to head out to have her baby. I was extremely surprised to see ONE STAR reviews for this book which is why I am leaving my own FIVE STAR review. I wish I could respond to other reviewers directly, but there are a few that I will address here.

One person claims that there are errant quotation marks, but in fact there are not. The sentence I'm assuming is the one in question is simple split up on the page so as not to interrupt the picture.

Another states that Little Owl SCREAMS mommy and this has caused her child to do the same. Um. Okay. Little Owl never screams anything. There is no screaming in this book. It is a peaceful and calm little story. The only thing I can find is: "Mama," Little Owl whispered, "tell me again how the night ends." I'm glad folks are reading to their children, as this gives all an opportunity to work on reading comprehension.

Someone else states that there is no flow and there is no point to the story. What a shame you missed it. I guess books that don't rhyme don't work for you? Not sure what the problem is.

Sorry. I'm done being terse. This book is sweet. My son and I enjoyed having a little book that mentions animals and their activities that are slightly out of the ordinary for standard kids books. Sure my kid loves kitties and puppies and lions and tigers, but this book mentions bats and opossums, hedgehogs and skunks. There is a neat little snail and pretty moths. It's about nighttime creature activities that little kids don't see. It's cute and the pictures are clear and bold. I've probably bought this book five times at this point.

Very cute story. I love that this is very different than other "goodnight" books. It's a different perspective of what activities goes on during night time, and a wonderful way of teaching kids nocturnal animals. Most bed time stories talk about activities before bedtime. This one talks about the activities that goes on at night, and when the sun comes up, that's when the baby owl goes to sleep. I like the size of the book, not too small, and not too big. I love the colors and the artwork. It's just beautiful work! I also liked that most of the pages are black or dark, so when you are reading, it makes you kind of sleepy because it's dark.. although the artwork and colors of the animals stand out.. but not in a bad way.. not obnoxious or loud. If I were to knit pick a little bit.. The only surprising thing was the artwork on the last page was "day time", and it was a little bright for me. Let's say you're reading the whole story, and you're getting sleepy.. that last page.. because it has a white background (daytime), it kind of wakes you up. If I were to give feedback to the artist, I would just make this last page a little darker.. like it's ABOUT to become day time.. but not yet daytime. This way, when you are reading for your child and she's about to fall asleep, she doesn't get woken up by the brightness of the last page. :) This was a great buy for a gift for a friend's daughter. Now I will buy it again for my own daughter.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for infants and toddlers
Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2015

In short, this is a great book and I highly recommend it. The story and the colorful images combined with the night time backgrounds make it an interesting book on many levels. We originally purchased the book for my daughter when she was 10 months since she seemed to enjoy owls. Even at 10 months, the book's images held her attention and the pacing of the story was such that she didn't lose interest as we went from one page to another. The book quickly became a regular and was frequently requested or pulled off the shelf. As she got a little older, this book became her daily "night-night" book and its concepts, complete with the little owl drifting off to sleep, make it appropriate for use in that manner if desired. Our daughter loved the little owl as he travels to through the woods, and often kissed him goodnight at the end of the story.

Now, at 20 months, she continues to love reading and flipping through this book and will request it at various times of the day, or pull it off the shelf to flip through on her own. This book definitely is one of our favorites and I would foresee it staying a regular in our household for quite some time.

I found this book by accident one day in the store for my young son and we both fell in love with it right away. It turned into one of his favorite bed time books and since then I have gotten it and the other Little Owl books for anyone I know that has a young child. The story is great and the illustrations beautiful and will hopefully become a favorite of your family too.

Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2016

This is a really cute book. I have to admit, it took a little while to grow on us. We read a lot of either silly Sandra Boynton books or serious, meaningful books, like "The night you were born". This one doesn't have a rhyming poem style to it, or a really deep message. It's just all around cute and fun.

After reading it a couple times I started to really enjoy it. The story walks us through little owl's night out. He visits different friends and has a little adventure. It has high contrast pictures and the cutest little owl ever. The story is just the right length for my 2 year old and I. Every night I let him chose 2-8 books depending on what time we get ready for bed. He choses this one about half the time. I don't dread it like I do others (like "Doggies" by Sandra Boynton). I wouldn't hesitate to buy this one again.

Reviewed in India on January 7, 2016

Little Owl's Night is a gentle story of a young owl's flight through the starry sky. It invites us into his enchanting forest with its wonderfully expressive nocturnal animals and their musical sounds, so that night begins to feel familiar and comforting

However, the main feature to this book is its illustrations. The artwork is beautifully rendered, it's a treat to turn the page for both me and my 2 year-old daughter. The gorgeous colors and artwork will instantly grab the attention of its young readers, quickly sparking their imaginations of what life must be like deep in the woods during the middle of the night.
